Been busy buttoning up the 4.0 project which will run today, having late lunch now so will post pics of the trailer.
It is wider and more heavy duty than I am used to, but I chose it not for the price but because of the "story" and the features. Couldn't easily afford one with surge brakes yet but this will do.
Key points:
No rusty crap.
New straps
Real title
Tilt mechanism
Swivel mechanism
Safety chains for the tow hitch, and for the vehicle AND for the tilt pin.
Clearance marker lights in the front.
New tires, wheels.
Wheel bearings have a grease fitting and a rubber cap
Retired previous owner who knew the entire history
Kept indoors while stored.
That being said, the paint is faded on the fiberglass fenders and I'm looking for suggestions on what color would match well, look better but not stand out like I'm a kid with a race cart or something.
The tires and wheels:
There is no spare, I usually stay within 100 miles if I venture further I will get one.
The only part that bothers me is the state it was manufactured in. So far it goes straight but I'm afraid as it gets to know me it will start pulling to the left.
